OK guys,
I'm doing some research b/c it's makes me happy on the classic fords (merc too) Mustang, Torino, Fairlane, cougar, Comets, Mavericks...mostly the first 4. So if i could get some help i would appreciate it greatly. this is for the V8 cars (i don't know if the l6 cars will be the same)

Here is the info i need
(67-72)
Wheel base
car width
rear ends
*engine bay width
*engine bay length
*curb weights

*= most important and the other is just icing on the cake

Thanks a lot guys,
Asa

 

mustangspecs.com has the info you need except the engine bay stuff.

http://www.mustangspecs.com/years/67.shtml

 

i use that site all the time, but the engine bay width length and depth are far more important

 

What engine do you have that you want to install in one of these bodies? Bring your measuring tape out and measure some of these I have here. kennyg

 

I can measure my 67 since I am working on it right now.

 

BA if you could measure i would appreciate it.

Kennyg, i don't know when i'll be able to get out there, maybe this weekend if your there. I am not wanting to install anything into them yet, but i am planning for something ~4-5 years down the road.

 

So what happened to all of these?

the 240z was gonna be hella cash that i really don't have
the turbo 2.3l blue stang is in progress...im up to removing the 302
the 351 mustang got crushed before i could get back with the cash for it
the v10...i was outta my freakin mind and over zealous
the 302 from ralph is apart and mostly cleaned up, i need new bearings and then it'll go back together with a set of ported E7's and an e303 camshaft, and once i get the 2.3 T out of the merkur i'll be trading that body in for a mustang body and dropping it in there

 

these aren't exact measurements, but close.

length
from front to shock tower - 19.5"
shocktower - 7.5"
shocktower to firewall - 12.5"
total length is around 39.5 - 40"

width

front - 41"
shocktowers 28.5"
firewall area - 40"

 

THANKS!!!!
your a life saver!

hopefully i can get out to the gullatts place this weekend and get some other measurements
